93ls400walt Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 My 93Ls has 95K on it. Bought it 11/05. About one month ago started hearing a strange sound like from behind the glove box. only after stopping at lights, ect. with engine at idle. Sounds kind of like a mechanical gear turning or closing. I thought that it may be an ECU resetting. Now, today the sound has progressed. It sounds like a gear clicking or slipping. And sounds more like it is behind the center counsel air vents. I can best describe the sound as like a computer hard drive hanging up or sticking with a sliding/clicking sound. I have not noticed any adverse problems with the car running or driving. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross W. Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Sounds like a climate control servo has gone haywire to me. On my car I can hear a few of them very faintly when I'm changing the settings or turning the system on, but that's it. The problem may be in the climate control ECU if I'm right.

93ls400walt Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 I cycled through all of the vent buttons. And have not heard the noises since. May have been a stuck flap. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
